looking for stable and functional gps rom - T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989

Its been awhile since i have visited the forums and getting really sick of the lag/random reboots for my stock rooted ics. What is the most stable with a working gps rom. I have tried koodo but that didnt work out to well. Gps never locked on even after doing the recommended agps fix. I really do like touchwiz mostly for the camera app. I get about 10 hours out of my phone now. I would like to squeeze more out of it if i can. So what are you guys running?

Lol last time I had a quick-lockin-flawless-badass gps was darkside roms.
Im sure there have been others since but I havent had any luck.

If you can rock gingerbread then flash Tuesday. Best GPS I ever used.

I am using slimbean 3.1.0 (beta) and I got a quick lock on GPS.
With iGO as navigation app you can skip the data usage.

Would the newest darkside rom still have the awesome GPS lock?

I have used quite a few JB roms, my GPS works perfectly. It gets locked very quickly.
I have had some GPS problems after jellybean. Read about GPS status app and fast fix app. Installed both. Locks faster than ever.

Just noticed this today. Stock GSM Nexus from the Play store. Worked fine on ICS, but after the OTA no GPS lock.

Hmmm. I have never had issues with my GPS but today for some reason I can't even get a lock outside. I see up to 11 satellites but they don't lock on. This just started happening.
I'm in Texas if that matters.

No, California. I got it to work again. Get faster fix and GPS test. Set faster fix to North America and use GPS test to clear agps
That worked. What's odd is that its still not locking on to as many satellites as usual

must be something wrong with the gps servers then...
On stock 4.1.1 currently and using maps or navigation my gps lock has been incredibly slow. It also doesn't locate my location very well any more. Was perfect on ICS.

Same here, and I've had the phone (on 4.1.1, unrooted) since Monday. It's always locked quickly before today. It only finally locked on a handful of satellites after more than a half hour of searching.
I'm in Minnesota; maybe it's a CDT thing?
I am having GPS issues today too, been working fine until today. I'm in chicago

GPS fix? AOKP maybe cm9 ics

First of all I'm on AOKP 715 m6. My gps was nonexistent even though it was good on earlier versions. I was running a modded vle radio which i don't remember the source. Anyways, i flashed tdj's modded vle radio in one of his threads and gps initial locked on in less than 5 mins. It then locks on in less than a min after that.
At first i thought it was the kernel, so i flashed different ones, but no changes. however the radio definitely fixed it for me on AOKP.
So to those with gps problems try flashing tdj's modded radios. Sorry for being lazy on my phone and not linking them.

This was discussed months ago. Its the basic reason modded radios were made. Apparently the RILS break GPS. So yes GPS won't work unless you flash one of the modded radios, as you found out by accident lol.

I am not using a modded radio I am using the one that came with the ics official update uvle1. And I am running AOKP M6 7-15. My GPS is the best it has ever been I get instant locks even indoors. And It is accurate too. I have also used other roms and had the same results.

yeah i remembered that discussion, and I flashed a modded radio and it worked for most ROMs. I was then really bothered that my uber great locking GPS was no more... I seriously thought I flashed TDJ's radio because I had a file with the same name in my sd card. So I was bummed and decided to test kernels because thats like testing 2 things at once lol. But yeah I ended up checking the md5 of the modded radio i had on my sd card and it turns out it wasn't the same. Must have gotten it from a different thread even though the file name was the same.
But yeah it's just a little reminder to those who have GPS problems, that even though you may think you have a perfectly working radio... you should just flash TDJ's radio mods just in case.
Just flashed TDJ's modded UCLE1 radio...still no luck with GPS

What do you guys mean when you say "breaks GPS"? I am trying to determine if my problem is similar to yours.
My problem is not really an issue with the GPS but an issue with Google Maps. When I use navigation from point A to point B, say Schaumburg to Chicago, it'll always speak directions as if it's going from point B to point A, although all the on-screen directions are correct.
I uninstalled the app and reinstalled, but have not yet tested to see if that fixed it.

Yes this is what I have to do every time I flash a ROM and GPS breaks. I made a thread about it and there are also 2 more threads. Its a zip file you flash through cwm. Also people don't forget that if you're on cyanogenmod that you have to go into location services, GPS source and tick "use internal GPS". Or else GPS will barely work.

If it is the first time you're trying to lock on, it might take a while, you should turn off wifi and data while leaving your GPS on. Stand outside with it on for 5-10 mins or so, it should get a lock on. After that your GPS locks quicker the more frequent you use it.
I think a lot of people would expect GPS to lock on right away, this only happens if your phone has recent locks to the GPS. I find it best with wifi and data off and to just leave the gps on and google maps on.
btw i've tried the AGPS patch before, but if you have a crappy radio it still won't connect lol.
Here's the screenshot without data or wifi. This is inside my house. Notice the gps signal has a constant dot in the middle, i know for aokp this means i have locked on.probably the same for cm, not sure about tw, haven't been on that for a month.
Anyways it has went as low as 4m, so pretty good. This is without apply the patch.

GPS problem

I have tried dark side 4.04 and Jedi knight 2 and JMT v8... previously I used to use JMT and my GPS worked flawlessy with no problem. A little while ago I started using darkside 4.04 and GPS was working well as well. Then I installed Jedi knight and since then my GPS is never able to lock on. I have tried switching back to JMT and darkside... but the GPS doesn't lock on...I've tried using the aGPS patch as well but that didn't do anything.
If someone knows how to fix this, please help me out as GPS is a part of my daily life. Thanks a lot!

I had a similar problem with my GPS taking 5 mins to lock in, and i was using DarkSide 4.04.
So i moved to [ROM] Android Open Kang Project | September 13 | Jellybean Build 1 + Nightlies, and my GPS locks in really quick.
Not sure why, DarkSide was really good ROM but the GPS was a problem casue i use it a lot while driving.
but I am really happy with my phone now (Jellybean Build 1 + Nightlies), hope this helps you.

That's weird... I always hear about that problem but I've never experienced it. Try AOKP 9/13 with lg3 radio. That's what I'm running and gps is perfect. Also try uninstalling and reinstalling Google maps. Also use internal gps for location... This is all I've done just posting what worked for me. Let me know what happens.

Gonna try that when I get home. Also PA made it to this device. Also the Jedi mind trick Roms. So many options. Wow head's spinning.
Leaning towards CM10.1 though.
No signal, can't play video
I was using CM10.0. Updated CM10.1 with corresponding gapp.
-Can't register on cellular network anymore. Can't set AWS frequency in the factory testing mode.
-All of my Video apps start legging, play videos for a little while and quit after about a minute, say video format not supported. Even though the video is mp4 format and it was playing it before quitting.
How should fix it? Flash kernel? Which kernel should I use?

Thanks that did the trick. I was going mad at why the LED notifications stopped working.
Also still on the non-touch recovery, 5.0.26 the one that needs the Darkmod scripts to wipe cache and do full installs.
Also had to turn sensor on/off before it actually worked. Read that from another post from someone that helped me.

Just went back to cm 10.0 and it's all working. Something in the newer versions that aren't "meant" for our phone is breaking BT.
Edit: CM 10.0 works better meaning I can actually turn it on but need to restart once turned off to turn it back on. It's hit or miss.
Edit2: Tried the "fix" on 10.1.2 (4.2.2) stable and it did not work.
Same Issue
The only rom Ive had good luck with was the 4.1 Carbon. And as stated it was a hit and miss deal, restarts were iffy. However I've had no luck with the "fix" on 10.1 stable either

The ONLY roms I've used with everything working inc BT were the 4.1.2 NON CM based touchwiz roms. Jedi and infamous as an example. THey have their other minor issues but the basics work.
What is the Bluetooth problem? I'm very curious. I did have an issue with Bluetooth on CM 10.1.2. The problem was that if I was in my car and I had Bluetooth enabled if I forgot to turn of the Bluetooth on the phone before shutting of my car, I couldn't re-enable it without rebooting the phone. Is that the problem you are referring to?
If so, I solved it on my phone. Under the Bluetooth settings I simply set it to be visible only to paired devices and set the Visibility Timeout to Never time out.
Hope this helps.
What happens to me is that I'll use BT n everything is good then it just stops working.. It pretty much turns off by its self and when I try to turn it back on it does nothing i turn it on then turns right off.. Need to reboot for it to work again.. I just wish there was a fix for this..

I'm waiting a little to try 4.3 anything until there is an official stable release. How is battery life on 4.3 Hellybean? I get about 16 hours a day on my CM 10.1.2 before I turn it off and charge it overnight. When I turn it off I have about 30% battery left. Is 4.3 Hellybean that good?
I decided to take a chance. I'm installing 4.3 Hellybean as I type this. I hope it is as good as CM 10.1.2 (yes I know it is cm based).

I didn't have Bluetooth issues with HellyBean . I had random screen flickers. Clunky animations, etc. Not stable enough yet for me. Gen00 I'm sorry to hear the workaround that worked for me didn't work for you. I've tested just about every ROM for our device. The best for me are Stock, JMT 6, or CM 10.1.2. I am using CM as I like it best. I do want to upgrade to CM 10.2 when there is an official stable release.

Its cool I tested out CM10.2 yesterday n Bluetooth was working for me on there but it didn't feel as smooth.. Had a couple reboots freezes so I restored CM10.1.. I'll just deal with it til it goes more stable.. It just sucks that The CM team left this untouched n made something stable without fixing something so important to a lot of users..
